How To Root an Android device

How To Root an Android device

In simple words, to Root an Android device is to unlock the Android OS to gain special administrative rights, so that you can install apps that unapproved by Google Play Store (apps outside the Google Play Store), update your Android Operating System, and many more. Android rooting is the process of allowing Android device user’s special privilege known as “root access” to the Android OS. It’s similar to iOS-jailbreaking.
Android Rooting is a powerful method to gain superuser rights to install apps and softwares that are secondary and are not provided by Google Store itself. By default, Google restricts installation of apps and softwares that are downloaded from secondary links.
Rooting is primarily needed for more advanced systems and firmware modifications, like deleting restricted system files, removing device manufacturer-installed applications or bloatware. It also grants low-level root access to the device hardware customization.
